The mail will show yellow if you don't have the public key to validate the 
signature against, or the key is untrusted.

i.e. I have your public key, but I have established no trust so I see:
Message was signed by Jeff Smelser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (Key ID: 
0x0DE01306).
The signature is valid, but the key is untrusted.

But I don't have Tom Wesley's public key, so I see:
Message was signed with unknown key 0xE2A89DADE67ABD60.
The validity of the signature cannot be verified.
Status: No public key to verify the signature

You can use kgpg to search for & import the public key from the keyservers, if 
the person has uploaded their key, and establish a trust relationship should 
you wish to.
